    I spent the past two weeks putting together two 1:60 scale perfect grade gunpla kits and posing them in an epic duel. I was assembling the kits alone for a total of 20 hours, hence the delayed upload!
    I am going to be selling wooden Boylei fish pins! I’ll be taking preorders till May 5th and the pins will ship sometime in mid June!

    Man, what I'd give to see you recreate any pivotal scene involving Shiro's Ez-8 vs. Norris' Gouf Custom. That final battle in the abandoned city was the stuff of legends.

    When i was a child (2001), my mom traveled to Japan for a work related trip. When she came back, she brought a magazine, filled with photos of dioramas of gundams and the like that she got from a hobby store over there. I was so amazed by them, by the sence of scale, the quality of the dioramas themselves. This one is just like them

    5:20 When pouring from a bottle like that, might I recommend using a pouring rod? Stops the paint from dribbling down the side of the bottle and getting everywhere you don't want it.

  • @dkod2304
    @dkod2304 6 месяцев назад

    I'd really love to see you make an 08th MS Team diorama. The reason is because I've found that Gunpla is really fun to paint! This can be weathering (rust, burns, dirt, etc.) battle damage (saber marks, damage, laser/bullet holes, etc.) or just making popular Gundam look different. I know in the past you've painted models and have really amazing talent and experience. The reason I suggest 08th MS Team is because one it has a very dedicated fanbase and two it has amazing damaged and weathered Gundam. Hell, the main poster has a rusted and damaged RX-79G Gundam. 08th MS Team has tons of pictures, animated clips, and resources to make a great weathered Gunpla. Also, 08th MS Team is set in many locations. Jungle, desert, city, etc.

    Also, It'd be an awesome custom diorama to make a wild imaginary west gundam - steam punk gundam perhaps?
